We Are Ready To Talk But Come Respectively, Raila Warns

Raila Odinga, the Azimio la Umoja alliance's head, has declared they are open to negotiating with the government. Nonetheless, the negotiation process has gone more slowly than anticipated.

According to Raila, the azimio la Umoja coalition leader has been willing to meet with the government for consideration. Still, they have been treated with contempt, hobbling attempts to vent their issues.

 Odinga emphasized a need to simplify Kenyans' issues, which cannot be accomplished unless the rivalry with the government is handled While attending a church service at ACK St. Stephen's Cathedral in Nairobi.

Raila stated that they want and are willing to negotiate but that the administration should come to the meetings with an open heart, not with disrespect. They further said that they would disrespect the Kenya Kwanza squad if disrespected.

He said that the azimio team are not insane people who wish to see carnage in our country and that they also have children, mothers, and fathers. Adding that they desire Kenyans to be together, it is up to them if the government refuses.

Demand for peace, saying that the anti-government protests are built on the foundation of peace.

He accused the government of protesters' deaths and property destruction, stating that the disproportionate police force caused the violent aftermath.

Raila odinga went on to say that they are peaceful people who desire peace—adding that others claim that the opposition's only goal is to protest and ruin people's property, which is not the case.

Raila went on to say that protesting does not destroy anyone's property. The ones bringing tear gas, water, and firearms wreak havoc. They are the ones causing havoc, not the azimio coalition.

He urged the faithful to pray for the Azimio alliance as it challenges the government to address the issues plaguing Kenyans. He vowed not to back down until the government responded to their requests.

"Pray for us as Azimio leaders so that we are able to bring this relief to Kenyans and fairness and have the high cost of living be lowered," said Raila.

"We want to do everything in peace and peace is what will deliver Kenyans from where we are now to where we will find relief." he added.

This comes against the backdrop of Azimio's camp threatening to return to the streets over assertions that the administration is not committed to holding sober negotiations with them in the bipartisan talks.
